A new tradition started by Jim Rome on his sports talk premier radio show. The worse callers of the year are invited to call the show and the host and his xr4ti crew rate the bad calls. They are looking for train wreck callers with lame takes on sports and life. The reality is that Rome himself has turned his show into more of the View on Radio, since the departure of his long time producer Travis Rodgers, and the incorporation of his new producer Kyle "Mommas Boy" Brandt.

During the Hack Off this year, there were many crappy callers. But the worse was a turd named Vinny Mac. So he won and was invited to the Smack Off (as defined in the urban dictionary).
